We enjoyed our campsite with the kitties. Highly recommend! Kimberly was very friendly, welcoming, and has a great heart for her feline friends. Our spot was super peaceful. It was fun hanging with the cats on the property.

Kamping with the Kitties
Lovely little quiet spot. So many kitties, many are friendly. It’s hard not to take one home!!! Definitely worth the stay, but stay alert when driving on the property, you don’t want to hit anyone!

This was one the most fun experiences I have had camping. The kitties come to greet you and relax with you as you camp. They all had such a chill personality which kept us in the same. We very much enjoyed our stay.
Kimberly is so nice. We shared wonderful conversation and laughs.
I hope to find another opportunity to stay at Kamping with the Kitties in the future.

Kimberly's camp is quiet, spacious and very well kept. The land is home to friendly felines that acted as our greeting party upon arrival. They escorted us to the firepit and showed their acceptance of us by utilizing every sleeping spot in our camper van. Very short drive to local beaches and Bombay Hook National Wildlife Refuge.

Kamping with the Kitties
I loved camping at Kim's place. Wood fire and water were provided, beach near by was nice to walk, it was quiet at the camping site. Cats were friendly and funny to enjoy some good times. I will remember this place for a while.
Thanks you Kim

Kamping with the Kitties
I really enjoyed my stay at Kimberly's. Great fishing on the bay and bird watching along the marsh is just minutes from you (saw bald eagles, ospreys, egrets, herons and waterfowl during my first cruise to the bay). Lots of very friendly feline companions to keep you company. Very quiet area that feels away from it all even though a supply run is just minutes away, also a dump station located nearby. I have already booked again and plan on even more visits.

We had a great time here! Close to a lot of fishing spots and plenty of company with the kitties. Kimberly made sure we always had water and wood for the campfire. We will definitely be back again. Sooner rather than later!

Kamping with the Kitties
I very much enjoyed my visit to Kimberly's camping with the kitty's. The property is well maintained with easy access to the road.
It was serene with lots of open land. Kimberly is a wonderful caring host. A few of the cats spent time with me, with most enjoying their own quiet space. It was just the right balance. I am looking forward to my next visit to this treasure of a place. The location to many attractions in the area is also remarkable.

This campsite was quiet and tranquil. I was immediately greeted by feline friends who were great company during my stay. The site was stocked with firewood and water. The summertime air was full of birdsong and the occasional vehicle passing on the road nearby. I enjoyed a fire into the late hours of the night, which helped keep mosquitos at bay. Thankful to have landed briefly at such a quaint little corner of the Delaware countryside.

Kamping with the Kitties
Such a great spot! Kimberly is so welcoming. She introduced us to all the cats who wanted to visit and brought us cat treats, my 4 year old loved feeding them. Cats loved it too ;) There was dry firewood and drinking water. The field was soft for camping on and pretty quiet. There are purple martin nests in the middle of the field, amazing! She is so dedicated to caring for the cats who are not adoptable and each time someone books, Kimberly buys a bag of cat food. We had a great time and will be back.

Kamping with the Kitties was an amazing experience for my boyfriend and me. We found a nice spot with a fire pit and chairs and enough shade to pitch a tent. The cats came by to say their hellos! Marvin, the grey cat, is very friendly and slept with us in our tent :) A lot of the money goes towards helping feed and house these cats, so it’s a great way to spend your money. The price was amazing and the spot is clean and comfortable! Kimberly is amazing and friendly and made our experience here much more memorable and pleasurable! Highly recommend this area for all types of groups and we’ll definitely be back to visit in the future. :)

This is a great location for exploring the Delaware Bay along scenic route 9. I was tent camping by bicycle and had a good time with Melvin, the official equipment inspector, who sniffed and approved each item of my gear.

Kamping with the Kitties
Great trip! Kim's really cool - we set the world to rights over the campfire with Melvin, the sweetest cat you'll ever meet. The huge birdhouses and mass of purple martins are a joy to behold, and with incredibly close access to Bombay Hook (which is awesome), it's one of the best value Hipcamps I've come across, and just a nice place to come back to after birding/sightseeing. A bit gnatty, but the campfire, which Kim generously supplied wood for, worked a treat to deter them, and if you have working bug spray bottle (not the one I grabbed from home...) you will probably be good.
In case anyone's looking for things to do relatively nearby, I also went to Prime Hook and Cape Henlopen, both of which were beautiful to drive/hike through, though I wish I had more time at Henlopen to do some biking and frisbee golf. If you get a chance, hop to the Rail Haus Beer Garden in Dover - a nice crowd there and good vibes (trivia night on Wednesday was fun). For a close, non-chain restaurant, I'll just shout out the staff at the Smyrna Diner for being super friendly.

Kimberly was very warm and welcoming. If you are a cat lover, you will feel especially welcome with her loving cats. The location was peaceful and beautiful. Very close to a beach. Lots of birds and wildlife. Kimberly was so sweet to bring water and firewood and checked to ensure we had everything we needed.

I had a wonderful time overall I'd rate this a 10/10 experience, Kimberly was a great host and so was Melvin. I slept peacefully and woke up to the birds chirping.

Melvin, the friendliest cat, greeted us and kept us company, snuggling on our laps around the fire and sleeping with us in the tent. Kimberly was very welcoming and gave us a large container of water and firewood. There was a grate for cooking over the fire pit, and some comfy Adirondack chairs. The grassy field was vast and good to sleep on. Hope to return!

We loved our stay with the kitties! Upon arrival the institutions were clear and we were immediately greeted by Melvin, one of the farm kitties who stayed with us all night. The area was beautiful, well-maintained and clean. The host was very accommodating and kind, she showed us where all the cats frequented and how much our stay helps fund their care. I will absolutely be coming back in the future!!

Nice open space to camp with very little light pollution. Lots of stars. Kimberly, the host, was great! We almost snuck a cat home with us.

We were greated by Kimberly and Melvin (Melvin the cate is the real host ☺️). Kimberly was really helpful, she bring us fresh water and explained to us all about the feral cats and her project to help them. It was easy to setup our camp in the open field. The weather was super nice so we were able to enjoy the nature. Melvin spent the weekend with us what a treat.

The descriptor of the simple "open field" offering were clear and correct. BUT, Kimberly offered so much more with her personal text messages - e.g. making firewood and drinking water available along with apologies for a "just-announced, next-door, next-morning geese shooting event". We had zero problems AND invited fellow campers from France to enjoy S'mores & conversation at our fire. Indeed the cats were friendly; one enjoyed each of our laps.
